October London, Snoop Dogg Premiere Short Film ‘Color Blind: Love’

Rated Next Artist October London and his mentor/rap legend Snoop Dogg join forces for a passionate short film called Color Blind: Love. The film is named after London’s debut EP, which released last fall.

Directed by Dylan Brown, the 16-minute clip follows an ex-prisoner’s (played by London) journey to pursuing his dream of being a singer.

The film features guest appearances from Snoop Dogg (who plays a slick talking music executive) and comedian Mike Epps (who plays a club owner).

After announcing her debut album, Ultraviolet, Justine Skye has released a video for her single “Don’t Think About It.” The dance-heavy clip was choreographed by Laurieann Gibson, who also co-directed the video with Life Garland.

Ultraviolet is scheduled to release on January 19, 2018 via Roc Nation.

SZA is having an incredible year. After scoring a chart-topping album and five Grammy nominations, the New Jersey native kept the momentum going on Saturday Night Live. Serving as the musical guest, SZA performed her fan-favorite single “The Weekend” and her Travis-Scott assisted track “Love Galore.”

Backed by a choir and a live band, SZA did a stripped-down version of both tracks, which was pleasant. Her performance focused on her beautiful vocals and the lyricism of each song.

“The Weekend” and “Love Galore” are lifted from SZA’s debut album, Ctrl, which is out now. Both songs have a combined 192 million streams on Spotify alone.
